Again Delivered
In the face of the reluctant admissions
of the surgeons that his hours were num
bered, the President rallied again, and
the feeling of despair that pervaded the
nation has given place to one of renewed
hope. The President continues to take
nourishment, and, while he is yet-.in
serious peril, there appears to be ampx
ground for feeling that he may yet get
well. The entire case hinges on the
solution of the problem of restoring
vitality to his system and purity to
his blood. His splendid will power, too,
has again stood him in good stead, and
on its continued exertion much will de
pend.
The Pullman Car Company employs
four thousand men, pays them |175.000
per month, and provides schools, gymna
slums, reading rooms and churches for
the employes, but no saloons will lie
permitted in the town.
The production of canned fruits and
vegetables for the State of Maryland
during the year 1870 amounted to $l,-
587,230, while in 1880, for the city of
Baltimore alone, the amount was $5,-
201,268.
The Chicago Tribune estimates that
the land bill will add about one hundred
and sixty million dollars to the value of
peasant holdings in Ireland and reduce
the rental of landlords from sixty million
to forty million dollars.
The total population of Austria-
Hungary by the recent census is 37,741,-
413, or about one million larger than
that of France, and two millions larger
than that of Great Britain. The increase
in Hungary during the decade was very
small—only one ninth of 1 per cent
The black list of the Western Associ
ation of General Passenger and Ticket
Agents contains the names of a large
number of legislators, statesmen and
journalists who have been detected in
selling their pisses. These gentlemen
deadheads are entitled thereby to the ad
dition&l degree of D. B.
Ii is only the burnt cork variety of the
negro that the Republican North really
likes when brought into direct contact
with him. Up in Michigan the lot of a
negro farmer is not a happy one, for
Chester Dew, after being mobbed and
tarred and feathered, has just been found
hung, with his head split open. Call out
the troops!
It seems that Col. Cole is vigorously
backed up in his lailroad enterprises by
the people of Atlanta, who have not
only brought their influence to bear on
the Legislature in favor of the extraordi
nary charter which he seeks, hut have
sent a strong delegation to Cincinnati to
induce that city to accept his hid for the
lease of the Cincinnati Southern.
For the first time in twentv-onc years
a review of volunteers has taken place
in Scotland. Queen Victoria on Thurs
day reviewed 40,000 Scots in Queen’s
Park, Edinburgh. Thousands of people
witnessed the grand sight and cheered
until they were hoarse the pipers of the
old Black Watch and the seventy-first
regiment of Highlanders, the pride of
the north.
A great change has taken place in the
social position of Richard Allen, of
Houston, Texas. He was one of the most
prominent colored politicians m the
State, and four years ago was a candi
date for Lieutenant Governor on the
Republican ticket. He is now charged
with being concerned in the robbery of
a number of graves which have recently
been despoiled.
A Pennsylvania millionaire doubting
how to dispose of his wealth, feigned
death to see how his relations would act
about the estate, and he not only had a
devil of a time to escape being buried
alive, hut they had got his estate into
probate, and they tried to put him into
the insane asylum, and he had to work
two years to get into his rights again.
It is unnecessary to state that he has left
his estate to a college.
“It is gratifying to know,” says the
Atlanta correspondent of the Augusta
Chronicle, “that the ‘History of Gcor
gia,’ by Col. I-*aac W. Avery, is meeting
with great success. The specimen sub
scription books are remarkably attrac
tive,and show that the steel engraverccnt
of eminent Georgians are to be executed
in the highest style of art. The typo
graphical appearance of the book is in
keeping with the easy, flowing style of
the author, who has written a book that
will suit all classes and ire eagerly read
by all lovers of Georgia’s greatness and
prosperity.”
Vice Presidant Arthur remained at his
residence in New York Thursday, but
he received no summons to go to Wash
ington. Ex President Grant and ex
Senator Conkiing called upon the Vice
President. Grant said to a reporter:
“The news to-day from Washington is
not very hopeful. I have heard that Dr.
Boynton has said that President Garfield
cannot live.” General Graut then ex
cused himself, saying that he had to go
up-stairs to see ex Senator Conkiing.
It seems impossible for Grant to re
alize the fact that he is only a private
citizen, or to divest himself of the idea
that the destiny of the republic is in his
hands. It would, under ail the circum
stances, be much more becoming in him
if he were to make himself as little con
spicuous as possible in political affairs
just now.
The proposition for one standard of
time made at the recent meeting of the
Science Association at Cincinnati does
not meet with popular favor. It is pro
posed that all of the railway trains in
the United States and Canada be run on
one standard. In theory this is excel
lent, but in practice it would lead to con
fusion, at least for awhile. In Sau
Francisco, for instance, the railway time
table would be several hours apart from
actual local time. It would be very
pleasant to have all the clocks in Ameri
ca strike twelve at the same time, but it
would be “confusion worse confound
ed” to have time pieces say it was twelve
o'clock when in fact it was but ten
o’clock. In lieu of this it was recom
mended to the association to have several
standards of time. New York to govern
the east, St. Louis the centre, one hour
later, Salt Lake the Rocky Mountain dis
trict, and San Francisco the Pacific coast.
But practically, for the running of trains,
that is the plan now. The railroads
running long lines have no difficulty in
making a schedule acceptable alike to
lb ■ public and themselves.
The Effect of Wisdom's Financial
Policy.
Secretary Windont’s announcement of
his intention of immediately paying s3o.*
000,000 of 5 per cents., due on October
Ist. with interest to that date, produced
the effect which he probably desired. It
relieved the money stringency and thus
enabled the stock and grain speculators
to continue their several “deals" and
“corners.” It also checked the decline
of fancy values which commenced late
last week. The Treasury should be
called the “Department for the Encour
agement of Slock and Produce Gam
bling." It is loudly complained in con
servative quarters that we are passing
through a period of “over-speculation.”
Now, the remedy for that popular dis
ease is a collapse of speculative values,
and it is always, in due time, ap
plied by the disease itself, provided no
powerful agency blocks the way. This
latter function has evidently been as
sumed by Secretary WiDdom for pur
poses that arc not visible upon the sur
face. Thus it is that the government
interferes to prevent the application of
a natural remedy to a disease that great
ly need3 effective treatment If stimu
lated by the powerful means at the hand
of Secretary Windom, this disease of
over speculation will in time demand
the heroic treatment of a business panic,
while now the comparatively mild
remedy of a break of fancy stock values
and inflated produce rates would suffice.
The Secretary’s policy may be the best
for himself; it is not the best for the
people.
The Pooling System.
Mr. Albert Fink, Railroad Commis
sioner, has written a letter in
reply to the recent strictures of
the Anti Monopoly League upon
the railway pooling system, in
which he maintains that no combination
of railroads can in any degree prevent
competition with the waterways of this
country. He also holds that competition
with other railroads is not prevented by
the existing “pool” between the trunk
lines, nor can aDy “pooling” combina
tion prevent legitimate competition
between the railroad companies them
selves. Mr. Fink directs the special
attention of those who desire to study
the railroad problem to a feature pecu
liar to competition between carriers.
“The least change made in the tariff of
one carrier,, by water or by rail, may
affect the rates of transportation in far
distant sections of the country without
there being apparently any direct con
nection between these different lines. It
is this feature,” 6ays Mr. Fink, “that
secures to communities distant from any
water course the advantages of the com
petition of the water routes, and renders
combination between the railroad com
panies necessary, while at the same time
ft prevents these combinations from
becoming a means of extorting unrea
sonable and unjust charges from the
public.”
Colonel Peterson imreatt.
Our Atlanta dispatch announces the
death of Colonel Peterson Thweatt,
which occurred in that city on Friday
night last. The Constitutian of Suu
diy says: “Colonel Thweatt was one of
the landmarks of Georgia politics, and
his circle of acquaintances was probably
as large as that of any man in the State.
He was for many years the Comptroller
General of the State; indeed, he may be
said to have created the office. At his
suggestion the office <vas en
larged, and the duties of the Comp
troller increased until the depart
ment reached its present prominence.
The reports of Colonel Thweatt are mod
els in their way—monuments of his fidel
ity, industry and sagacity, ne served
his State with a devotion that was most
intense, and his patriotism was of an
ideal kind. There is something of the
pathos of a tragedy in the circumstances
connected with Colonel Thwcatt’s death.
He had a claim against the State which he
had been vigorously pushing for several
years. Of the merits of that claim, it is
sufficient to say that some of the best
legal minds of the State regarded it as
founded in equity. It went from the
Legislature to the courts, and was there
decided adversely. There is no doubt
that Colonel Thweatt considered himself
the victim of a great wrong, and his
health gradually failed after the adverse
decision of the Supreme Court. He was
firm in his integrity, pure in his life, and
loyal to his friends. Such an epitaph as
might be truthfully written over his
tomb is more to be coveted than all the
blazonry of fame.”
Uncalled for Abase.
The letter of General W. C. Wick
ham, the most prominent Virginia Ite
publican, announcing bis purpose to
support the Democratic State ticket, has
aroused the ire of the New York Times,
and in a very brief editorial it manages
to denounce him as a “renegade” and a
“hypocrite,” and characterizes his pur
pose to endeavor to resuscitate the Re
publican party of Virginia after the fall
election as “a piece of impudence that
will be appreciated outside of the State
if not within its borders, where he is
better known.” This ill natured criti
cism of a manly, independent expres
sion comes with bad grace from a paper
now engaged in supporting a ticket
whose principal stock in trade is a claim
for a “free ballot and a fair count.”
Freedom of opinion seems not to be Em
braced in the Times' vocabulary of po
litical virtues as applied to the Virginia
canvass. General Wickham has served
the Republican party faithfully and ably
without seeking reward, and, as is well
known, has imparted quitQ as much re
spectability to that party in Virginia as
any man in the commonwealth; but be
is a man of determined will, and will be
a° little likely to be influenced by the
Times’ abuse as he was by the attempts
made to induce him to go over to the
coalitionists at the Lynchburg Conven
tion.
Chronic l’ya-min.
Dr. Robert F. Weir, a well-known
New York surgeon, says that the Presi
dent has chronic pya-mia or septicaemia.
It began with the chills of July 23, and
from that time the pus exposed to the
air has decomposed and been absorbed
into the system. Acute pyatmia occurs
in the early stage of an injury and is
almost universally fatal. Chronic pyre
mia is a disease only recently recognized
by the profession. There is fever with
numerous abscesses in the glands and
muscular tissues. The mortality is
great, from 75 to 80 p-.-r cent. He thinks
the President’s outlook bad, ns enough
fuel cannot be put into him to run the
machine oa its up-grade course. The
best treatment is good air, full diet and
stimulants, with early and free opening
of abscesses. Pytemia was once com
mon in hospitals, but Lister’s treatment,
based on the fact that the discharges
from a wound become poisonous on con
tact with the air, has driven it away.
The wound is covered by Listerism from
the very start with dressings peculiarly
impregnated with carbolic acid, because
the acid has been found capable of de
stroying all life in the g< rms that,floating
in the air, cause the decomposition of
the pus. Had complete antiseptic treat
ment been resorted to in the beginning
of the President's case, a feeling of
security would have ensued, and the
present complications would have been
avoided.
The Mormon Question.
In the September number of the Inter
national lUviets Mr. John Oidman dis
cusses “Mormonism” from what he is
pleased to style its “third side,” as dis
tinguished from the views takeD of it by
the two classes of writers who are ranked
either among its rabid opponents or with
in the body of the “Saints” themselves.
He treats the subject in an unusually
fair and unprejudiced way. In fact, so
mild are his views concerning the man
ners and customs of the followers of
Joseph Smith that, by very many read
ers, he would be adjudged too partial.
When, however, he points out that the
believers in the book of Mormon residing
in Utah differ from other well
disposed communities, in that a
portion of them only practice
polygamy, and in that, as a whole,
they are far more industrious and thrifty,
he becomes entitled to an attentive bear
ing. It is admitted, even proved, that the
book of Mormon “is a fraud,” but it is
alleged that to it there can be no especial
objection, in that its teachings are
moral, and in that it not only does not
permit of plural marriages, but, on the
contrary, actually forbids them. It ap
pears that polygamy was an “after
thought”—the outgrowth of the gross
sensuality of leaders, who bad little
difficulty in persuading their followers
that it, too, was a "revelation.” There
is, however, a sect of Mormons not poly
gamists, who call themselves Josephites,
in the belief that Joseph Smith never
advocated nor “revealed” that idea.
The writer referred to describes in
some detail the perils and hardships en
dured by the Mormons in their exodus
to Utah, under the leadership of Brig
ham Young, and declares, somewhat
exaltedly, ihat, compared with this,
“the journey of Moses and the Israelites
pales into insignificance.” These peo
ple, he adds, were not “the ignorant
masses of Europe,” but “mostly men
and women of New England blood.
The seed from which they sprung was
planted on the shores of Massachusetts
Bay, grown to maturity in a hardihood
of religious obstinacy which made the
accomplishment of such an undertaking
possible.”
It is declared that polygamy is but a
weapon in the hands of both sides in
the discussion of Mormonism. The
church keeps hold of it mainly to court
persecution, for by persecution has it
flourished. It appears to Mr. Codman
that time and the moral sentiment of the
remainder of the great West, with those
who are yet to go out there, will effect
the reformation so devoutly wished for.
Mormons have a most effective organiza
tion. They have already settled nearly
all the arable land of Utah, and they are
pushing their emigration into neighbor
ing Territories. This scattering of their
forces admits of additional elements of
opposition to their objectionable prac
tices.
Rather Too I’reT ature.
The New York Post, in its eagerness to
acquit the colored Lieutenant Flipper
of the charges of embezzlement, upon
which he has been arrested, does not
wait to hear any denial or explanation
from Flipper or his friends, but at once
sets to work without even a pretense of
any knowledge of the facts of the case
to invent a plea of defense. It is evi
dent that the editor of the Post has the
phobia in the most violent form when in
his zeal to establish the innocence of the
accused he does not hesitate to cast im
putations of fraud and dishonorable con
duct upon the white officers of the garri
son of Fort Davis. After publishing the
statement of the case as reported in the
dispatches, the Post says:
“Such is the story sent out from Fort
Davis, but what is Flipper’s side of the
story? Is he unfamiliar with the Whit
taker case? Does be not know that the
prejudice in the army against colored
officers is so intense that there would be
nothing unnatural in ‘putting up a job’
of this kind? Did he never suspect any
thing when they pretended to like and
esteem him very much, and craftily
made him commissary, and entrusted
him with funds, well knowing that
the negro race is not accustomed to com
plicated pecuniary transactions, and can
easily be confused about them by means
of accounts, youebers and the like?
When he was suddenly called upon to
account, and stated that he had mailed
his funds, did it never occur to him that
his servant might have been bribed, and
checks carefully prepared to look like
those which have disappeared placed in
his hands? Then the poor defenseless
boy is locked up, prevented from com
municating with his friends, and stories
are spread abroad that his most inti
mate associates of late have not been the
best.” And this, too, at a distant post,
surrounded by army officers who loathe
him, graduates of an institution where
prejudice against his race is cultivated
by officers of instruct'on, and where the
mutilation of negro cadets is regarded
as a pleasant pastime. And this, too, in
far away Texas—old slaveholding, slave
driving Texas where conspiracies to
massacre negroes, or rob them of the
franchise, are part of the every-day life
of the community. It is pretty evident,
that Flipper has not ‘retained counsel.’ ”
Where Gould's Hold Hoes.
Borne staggering figures are given by n
New Orleans journal regarding Gould’s
ownership and investment in railways.
The statement assumes that he still con
trols the Union Pacific and Wabash sys
tems, and that he has purchased, as re
ported, the East Line & Red River Rail
road, from Jefferson to Greenville, Tex.
It also includes the mileage of the Tex a.- 4b
Pacific to El Paso, of which there arc
about two hundred and fifty miles yet
incompleted; the unfinished lines in the
New Orleans Pacific, which will be
closed in October; the extensions of the
Iron Mountain Road to Camden and
from Knobel to the Louisiana line; the
unfinished links in the Missouri Pacific
from Fort Worth to Austin and from
San Antonio to Laredo, all of which are
being energetically pushed and will be
finished soon. On this basis of calcula
tion Gould’s mileage of railways foots
up as follows:
Texas and Pacific 1,896
Missouri Pacific 3,952
Galveston, Houston and Henderson 50
East Line and Red River 184
Wabash. Pt. Louis and Pacific (including
from Danville to Vincennes and Cairo), 2,746
Union Pacific system 3,446
Total Gould mileage 11.714
It will be seen that about 2,400 miles
of Gould’s lines are in Texas and 340
miles in Louisiana. The above table
docs not include Gould’s Mexican line,
the Mexican Oriental Interoceanic &
International railroad, which will em
brace 1,200 miles. Add this, and the
mileage of the Gould systems is aug
mented to 13,000 miles. Rating the
Western Union Telegraph at $80,000,000
and the capital of the Mexican road at
$50,000,000, the investments in what are
known as the Gould properties are as
follows;
Texas aud Pacific 9 69,200.000
Missouri Pacific 160.000.000
Galveston, Houston and Henderson. 2.500,000
East Line and Red lliver 3.000,000
Wabash, Kt Louis and Pacific 93,800,000
Union Pacific 180,000,000
Western Union Telegraph 86,200,000
Mexican Oriental, etc., railroad 50,008,000
Total 9646,500,000
A Moving Cloud or Ants.—The peo
pie of Emerson, Manitoba, were recently
startled by an unusual phenomenon in
the shape of clouds of ants flying in the
air from west to east, and extending for
miles around. They were apparently
ordinary black ants provided with wings.
During the night myriads of these in
sects came to the earth, and the streets
and sidewalks were literally black with
them. The Ked river was also covered
with a coating of the ants an inch thick.
The atmosphere was exceedingly sultry
and the light was considerably impaired’
so heavy were the clouds during the tim.
In which the ants were passing over the
town.
Mrs. Mary Martin, of Harrisburg, Pa.,
says: “I suffered severely from a complica
tion of female diseases; that sense of bear
ing-down seemed as if it would kill me; my
habits were very irregular- nothing seemed
to benefit me until I tried Brown’s Iron Bit
ters. They acted like a charm, and now I
enjoy perfect health.”
GUITEAU WANTS PROTECTION.
lie la Fearfnl ot Violence and Aaka
to Be made Hate Against Any At*
tack.
Guiteau, since his recent encounter
with the guard. McGill, has been more
quiet than before, and the jail officers
have little occasion to speak to him. He
seems to have an idea that he is in danger,
aud has recently expressed a desire to be
better protected. From both the gate
and the back window of his cell he can
be seen from the outside, and he appears
fearful that an attack may come by way
of the window. There Las been a close
examination made, and it is found that
from no quarter can he be reached from
outside unless be puts himself in
the way. With the idea of protection
he has asked for iron shields or
shutters for his cell. A day or two ago
he asked for a rope to stretch across his
cell to hang his blanket on so that it
would answer the purpose of a screen.
He described the rope wanted as about
fifteen feet long and one quarter or one
half inch thick, and stated emphatically
that he did not want it to aid him in
committing suicide, but solley for the
purposes stated. Although perfectly
composed now, it is pretty evident that
if he sees any danger approaching him
he would anticipate it if he had an op
portunity. The guard in and about the
jail remains about the same as it has for
a week past. The military occupy the
same posts in the building and one or
two pickets ate posted outside. There is
no truth in the report of Guiteau’s re
moval from the jail to a United States
war vessel.
Col. Corkhill, United States District
Attorney, is reported as saying that he is
fully aware of the existence of a secret
organization in Washington city whose
purpose is, in the event of President
Garfield's death, to break the jail and
put an immediate end to the life of the
assassin Guiteau. Their desire is to
hang Guiteau by a slow process, and in
the meantime each member of the or
ganization is to be allowed to put a bul
let in Guiteau’s body, taking care not to
strike him in any vital point until the
last possible moment. The Colonel says
he has good reasons for the belief that
the guards of the jail, who are all of
them ex Union soldiers, know of
this secret organization and are in
sympathy withjt. He says that it Las
been with the utmost difficulty that the
warden of the jail has prevented these
guards long ere this from finding some
excuse to kill Guiteau. This explains
the encounter between a guard and Gui
teau, which took place in the latter’s
cell recently. Guiteau knows the guards
want to kill him, and for that reason has
suffered great mental anguish since the
first relapse of the President. He is so
nervous that he gets little or no sleep.
The Colonel says that while he believes
that no torture too great can be visited
on Guiteau, he must see that the law is
obeyed, which protects Guiteau and
secures for him a fair trial before a jury
of his countrymen. He says that it
would never do to go to the world that
in the capital of the nation the officers
of the law were unable to enforce its
mandates, and were at the mercy of a
mob. All that will be necessary to secure
the jail from the interference of a mob
will be a battery of artillery. There are
now three batteries of United States
artillery stationed at the arsenal in
Washington, and about two hundred
ami fifty marines at the nayy yard.
TnOUGUTFU LNEBB IN A CRITICAL
Hocr.—ln the winter of 1863-4 Hayes’
Louisiana brigade presented Msj. John
W. Daniel, the Democratic nominee for
Governor of Virginia, as a token of their
admiration, a pair of silver spurs which
cost $3,200 in the currency of the Con
federacy. When he was badly wounded
in the thigh in the battle of the Wilder
ness the foot of his shattered limb lay
upon his breast as he fell, when, with
his own hands, he unbuckled one of
those spurs and handed it to a friend
who had taken off the other, telling him
to take care of them. Expecting to fall
into the hands of the enemy, he was un
willing for them to capture his spurs,
and they are still in his possession. He
also took from his haversack the Con
federate countersign, and gave it to the
same friend, lest it might fall into the
bands of the enemy. —Charlottesville
